I am out of work until, I dont know when. It isnt a lay off it is just how my job works. (I dont really want to get into it) I make good money when I work but I always have to prepare for not working sometimes.

Everybody differs in some respects. At this time of life, our income has dropped greatly, and we have a lot of problems. It all depends on personal circumstances, but we barely get by, and I live in a nightmare. So it depends on just how lucky some are, and how circumstances sometimes are beyond our control.
